WHY OUR CLIENTS CHOOSE US

More than a coach. A partner who shares the workload.

We work with leading academic institutions, nonprofits, healthcare organizations, museums, and more to achieve bold goals—whether through capital campaigns, strategic planning, donor development, or comprehensive fundraising strategies.

If you have a vision and mission that transforms the way you work and serve, we can help you fund it.

With us as your fundraising partner, your capital campaign will raise money in a shorter period of time. Your strategic plan will align your goals with actionable steps that drive growth. Your donor engagement strategy will deepen relationships and expand your support base.

That’s because we don’t just coach. We do. By listening to your donors and analyzing your unique needs, we craft customized strategies that deliver results—not the same generic plan most other firms use.

WHAT WE DO

We grow your impact—one relationship, one strategy, one goal at a time.

At the Winkler Group, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions.

We partner with academic institutions, healthcare organizations, and nonprofits nationwide to uncover what makes your mission unique—and build customized strategies that deliver measurable growth and drive revenue. From growing your donor base to launching transformative capital campaigns, our approach starts with listening and ends with success.
